One of the most destructive (Ires In the his tory of Coos Bay occurred at 'North Bend this morning at about 1 o'clock In the Clark Woolen Mills building. The flames. had gained such headway before water could be" got to the building that it was destroyed, with all its contents. The structure was 280 feet long by 80 feet wide, and three stories high. There was also a large boiler and engine room and large dry sheds. . The plant was one of the best equipped on the coast, the building and machinery being valued at $80,000. There was no insurance on the property. The mill had not been operated for the past two years. It was built in 1903 and was owned by the Simpson Lumber Company.

The decision practically restores the rates on lumber In effect prior ,to Novem ber 1 of last year. r '- AUGUST STANDARD PATTERNS NOW READY uly Reductions 5 Departments HE Money-Saving opportunity of the year is at hand.

Police and detectives of many cities are search ing for August Kberhard, a grocery clerk, suspected of knowing some thing of the death of his aunt, Mrs. Otllle Kberhard. who arrived from Vienna last week and whose horri bly mangled body was found on the railroad track near Hackensack yes terday. The woman and daughter were in duced to come to this country un the promise of riches, and that Kherhard would marry the daughter. She brought $2ti00 with ber. which was changed to American money, after Kberhard hud lodged his aunt and cjusln In a lodging house. Yesterday her body was found and the neph-w is missing. The girl, who Is twen'y. refuses to believe that . her. oiisln nimder 'd her mother, who caried her money in the bodice of her dress. During the intense hem of Sund '.y afternoon Kberhard suggr'sred a trol ley ride. Near Hackens"!- 'he ii""' -ew suggested a walk in the woods and all three, left the car. Toward evening Kberhard claimed he lost his way. a storm broke and the trio push ed down the track until In a deafen ing rrnsh of thunder the elder woman stumbled. "I have been struck by lightning," she screamed. At the same Instant Miss Kebrhard says she saw a flash coming evidently from behind a car on the railroad sid ing, then a second and a third. As the mother fell the girl felt u bullet graze her own neck, cutting a thin gold chain. Suddenly Kberrhard urged her to run and a second bulb t plowed Into her shoulder. Turning to see where her mother was. a third bullet hit the bridge of her nose, the blood and wound blinding her. Through the darkness and slonn the wounded girl plunged on until sho reached h e.ittage. where she was la-ken esre'of Ttntil the storm passed. Then the police were notifb.d. The body of Mrs. Kberhard was fiund by an engineer, who notified the police, and an examination show ed that she had been shot twice and was dead when the train struck her. Kberjiard, the nephew, disappeared In1 the darkness. $150,000 FOR UNIVERSITY IMPROVEMENTS HITCHCOCK MEETS HIS LIEUTENANTS IN COLORADO Colorado Springs, July 20.

COMMISSION MAY ACT UPON FREIGHT RAISE j Wash Dresses at a Saving of One-Half We do not pick out a few to sell but Ihe entire line of wash shirt waist suits, on salo at ,4 prlee, ,,w SI. 50 (o 82.50 Washington, July 19. The Inter state commerce commission may take action on the Increased freight rates agreed tb at the meeting of the Southeastern Freight Association and the Southeastern Mississippi Valley Association, at Louisville, Ky., yes terday, when the new tariffs are filed with the commission by the roads having membership In these j two associations. Action cannot be taken by the commission on its own initiative or on complaints of ship pers or snippers associations. If the I Interstate commerce commission should rind that the increase In freight rates was made through con certed action and that there wus evi dence that the Sherman anti-trust law hnd been vlolnted. attention will In nil probability bo called to the mat ter.

This amount represents. the difference between I ho old appro priation of $47,fi00 per year and tho new nppropr. alien of $125,000. This fund will be considerably Increased by Ihe time the new buildings are completed, as not more than $9(,r 000 u year will be required for main,- , lenunce. it Is estimated that about 1 $150,000 will be spent for buildings and permanent improvements by Sep-j temper 1, 1909. Owing to tho overcrowded condi tion of the present buildings, It is quite likely that another recitation hull will be erected between Ueady hall and the now library. . Other buildings that are being talked of are a large dormitory for women and an addition to the engineering building. Owing to the lateness or the season and the time that will be required for the drawing up of pJanB, It is un-. likely that any work of importanco will be commenced before spring. This means that none of the new buildings will be ready for UBe before September 1, 1909. There are a number of repairs and Improvements, however, that will be made at once, such as the furnishing of the wo men's clubhouse and the lighting and OHN B. STANCH FIELD.
